Episode Description
Es ist 1996. And the winner is: TOCOTRONIC! In der Kategorie „Jung, deutsch und auf dem Weg nach oben“ bekommt die Band den COMET überreicht - einen Nachwuchspreis des Musikfernsehsenders VIVA. Und Tocotronic? Fühlen sich nicht so jung. Wollen keinen Preis dafür haben, dass sie deutsch sind. Und auf dem Weg nach oben? Naja, schauen wir mal. Was ist passiert? Wo fing das an? In Hamburg, natürlich. Tocotronic schaffen es, mit Lofi-Sound, deutschen Texten, Cordhosen und Trainingsjacken aus ihrem Proberaum auf die Titelseiten der Musikmagazine. Das verstehen nicht alle - von Anfang an scheiden sich die Geister an Tocotronic. Die Band schafft es trotzdem auf die VIVA-Bühne! Und da zeigt sie gleich zu Beginn ihrer Bandgeschichte Haltung. Wo fing das an, was ist passiert, was hat die bloß so inspiriert?

Enemy Of Soviets
Enemy Of Soviets
A minute of light when we met. Flash.. And gradual extinction. The pain of despair will be what I have saved. Who am I? Why me?... And here I am a stranger to everything - an enemy to everything.Enemy of Soviets - electrified autumn melancholy and romantic sadness post-punk revival, which is filled with sincere emotions and genuine honesty to himself. English-language lyrics, ringing like a pain guitar and humming like a call of conscience synthesizer filled with philosophical irony and melancholic mood of the truth of life.The main author of the songs for the Enemy of Soviets is Artyom Chepurnykh. The main thread through all the texts are reflections on the relationship between a man and a woman, not lacking depressive moods and philosophical irony. The band is not restricted to the conventional and banal thoughts on this topic. Inspiration Artyom finds in his own life, so the lyrics could be called autobiographical.

This is Entertainment? (Chemical Imbalance Remixes)
Skatenigs
This album has been a passion project since 2018 when I set out to assemble a collection of remixes and re-imaginations of the song that started it all, Chemical Imbalance, by some of favorite producers and artist. In 1987 I developed one of the most important friendships of my lifetime. Al Jourgensen and I became fast friends when Ministry played the Cave Club in Austin, Tx where I had been establishing an audience devoted to industrial music and the sound of Wax Trax records. It wasn't long after that Jourgensen would ask me to get a band to open for Ministry's Land of Rape and Honey tour. Hence Skatenigs were born and so was Chemical Imbalance. Al would produce the first iteration for the Chicago based label. During the recording we met Lorri Jackson who would pen and perform the now famous prologue to the songcreditsreleased June 9, 2023This album is dedicated to the memory of my son, Cash Owen 1995 - 2017Artists and producers involved in this project are:This is Entertainment
